Saturday 9: Easter Sunday Sweethearts




Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

1) This song is about a couple dressed in their "Sunday Best." Will you be getting dressed up this weekend?

A. No.

2) The happy couple is walking up the street arm-in-arm. Have you recently seen a couple holding hands or walking arm-in-arm in public? Were you one of that romantic duo?

A. My husband and I usually hold hands when we are out.

3) This week's featured artist, Vera Lynn, was a beloved English singer who is affectionately remembered for her tireless work entertaining the troops during WWII. She famously sang "There'll Always Be an England" during outdoor concerts in Egypt, India, and Burma, even as battles raged nearby. What is your favorite patriotic song?

A. America the Beautiful.
 
4) Though she became a celebrity at 19, Vera continued to live with her parents until she married at age 21. How old were you when you left home for good? 

A. Twenty.
 
Now, here are some questions in honor of this weekend's holiday . . .

5) More than 1.5 million Cadbury Creme Eggs are produced every day. Do you enjoy Cadbury Eggs all year around, only at Easter, or not at all?

A. I eat a few around this time of year but that's it. I don't see them to purchase at other times (the Halloween ones are not good). I don't eat them like I used to because they don't taste as good as they once did. They're also smaller.
 
6) Pretzels are considered a delicious Easter snack in Germany. Do you more often crave salty treats or sweet ones?

A. Sweet ones, I'm afraid.

7) We've been talking a lot about sweets this morning. The only holiday that generates more candy sales is Halloween. When do you eat more candy: Easter or Halloween?

A. I will say it's about the same amount.

8) Easter is considered the season of rebirth. What makes you feel refreshed or rejuvenated?

A. A hot shower and a good night's sleep.

9) This year, April Fool's Day happens to follow Easter Sunday. Do you expect to fall victim to any pranks?

A. No.

  6. I agree, many of the chocolates just don't taste the same. That is nice that you and your husband still hold hands. Happy Easter!
